The Simon Communities in Ireland say that the 2014 budget lacks long term vision and will deeply impact on the people who are most vulnerable in our society. The charity welcomed the news that the budget for homelessness is to be maintained at 2013 levels but warned that the continuing cutbacks to funding for health services, education and training as well as drug and alcohol services will have repercussions, which contribute to the numbers of people becoming homeless.
